usability

I'm designing user interface and want to ask your advises how to make it more user-friendly. Please tell any suggestions and if you have ever seen implementation of something familiar please share the link.

University. There are 40+ specialities grouped into 5 faculties. User choose several he is interested in and than orders them by priority.

For example I am interested in "programming microcontrollers", "system analysis" and "experimental physic". I must find them quickly in "programming faculty", select them and then order - what I prefer most and what I prefer less then others I select.

Any ideas welcome :)
